US Market View
U.S. stocks are set to build on Thursday’s record closes at the opening, with quiet bond markets largely unruffled by the gradual reopening of the economy. Crude oil prices continue to drift sideways against a backdrop of rising supply and some uncertainty over whether demand is recovering fast enough to absorb it.
March inflation data out of China confirmed the start of a widely-expected increase in prices, measured in annual terms. PPI rose 4.4% on the year, the fastest increase since July 2018 and well ahead of expectations, while CPI rebounded to 0.4% on the year from -0.2% in February.
Europe’s sluggish vaccination campaign is showing signs of picking up at last. German Health Minister Jens Spahn tweeted that Europe’s largest economy had distributed 1.375 million vaccine shots in the last two days alone, something that reflects the fact that Germany only this week started allowing general practitioners' surgeries to vaccinate against Covid-19.
